You call me a "freeloader"... you know nothing about me.

My feeling is you "racers" don't want regular guys on the course with you cause we don't fit your mold. If you're not hard core you're not $%&#. And we wonder why sailing isn't more popular.

Guess what, I'll cross what little racing I've done off, you guys don't need us regular folks. Its amazing, I used to think cat sailors were regular folks.

Where did this response come from Clayton?

The whole movement about racers (not just cat sailors) not wanting USSA membership to be mandatory was to support grass roots guys and fringe racers interests. Now anyone who wants to can join voluntarily for various reasons, and have access to the benefits, as well as support the organization. You can still race and be welcome, just at a different price and commitment level. I don’t know anyone who feels like casual racers ought to be kept off the race course.
